Alerian Announces Winners and Hall of Fame Inductees of the 2017 Ammys

Alerian announced today the 20 winners and 8 Hall of Fame inductees of the 2017 Alerian MLP Awards, or Ammys. These individuals and companies were recognized at the Second Annual Ammys Dinner, hosted by Gabriel Hammond at The Theatre at Prohibition in Houston, Texas on March 6.

Headlining the 2017 class of Hall of Fame inductees were Richard Kinder, co-founder of Kinder Morgan; Barry Miller, for his contributions at Vinson & Elkins; and Dave Schulte, for his contributions at Tortoise Capital Advisors.

"We take for granted today that energy infrastructure is its own asset class, both from an operational and investment perspective," said Kenny Feng, President & CEO of Alerian. "Rich, Barry, and Dave have been instrumental in shaping that reality. Without their prescience, innovation, and capital formation efforts, respectively, the industry would not be what it is today."

A complete list of winners and Hall of Fame inductees is below. Additional information about the event, including presenters and finalists, can be found at AmmyAwards.com. Photos from the event will also be available at the site soon.

Alerian equips investors to make informed decisions about Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs) and energy infrastructure. Its benchmarks, including the flagship Alerian MLP Index (AMZ), are widely used by industry executives, investment professionals, research analysts, and national media to analyze relative performance. As of February 28, 2017, over $17 billion is directly tied to the Alerian Index Series through exchange-traded funds and notes, separately managed accounts, and structured products.
